Why this destination is a must-visit

Blanes: the must-sees you simply can’t miss
Blanes is the true gateway to the Costa Brava. Here are five highlights that capture its essence:
-
Marimurtra: the Mediterranean’s finest balcony. This is one of Europe’s most spectacular botanical gardens. Don’t miss: a photo at the Linnaeus Temple, where the cliffside views create the area’s most iconic postcard scene.
-
Sa Palomera and the start of the Costa Brava: this striking rock divides the bay and marks kilometre zero of the Costa Brava. It also takes centre stage during the famous July Fireworks Competition, one of the most prestigious in the world.
-
Castle of San Juan: views that go on forever. Climb to the top of the hill and take in the full sweep of the coastline. On clear days, you can even spot the outline of Barcelona.
-
Roberto Bolaño Route: for lovers of culture, Blanes was the retreat of the celebrated Chilean writer. Walk through the very places where he shaped his masterpieces and soak up the inspiration of the town.
-
Fishing port and fish market: Blanes still holds on to its seafaring soul. The perfect plan: head to the port at sunset, watch the boats return surrounded by seagulls, and experience the fish auction, one of the most authentic in Catalonia.

El hotel se encuentra a un paseo de la playa y tiene muchas tiendas, heladerías y restaurantes cerca.
There is no evening entertainment, even though they have the facilities for it. As for daytime activities, they are very focused on children and there is nothing for adults.
The reception staff hardly give any information and are quite unfriendly.
The mattresses and pillows need updating.
Sleeping and nap times should be respected more, as you can hear everything.
As for the food, it gets very repetitive (and not very healthy) if you stay more than three nights there.
No hay animación nocturna, a pesar de contar con las instalaciones. En cuanto a la diurna, muy orientada a los niños y nada para adultos.
Las chicas de recepción apenas dan información y son bastante "secas".
Los colchones y almohadas necesitan una puesta al día.
Las horas de sueño y siesta deberían respetarse más puesto que se oye todo.
En cuanto a la comida, resulta muy repetitiva (y poco saludable) si pasas más de tres noches allí.

Si lo que quieres es tranquilidad, no es tu sitio.
La comida aún evitando el cerdo está bien.
El que no tengan ningún tipo de alcohol,e parece correcto.
En calidad precio es aceptable.
Dicho esto:
Mucho ruido y el 90% magrebíes y alemanes, con tapones arreglado, así lo he hecho.
TO THE HOTEL MANAGEMENT:
Avoid playing with balls in the pool, as well as avoiding jumping and doing tricks — it's as simple as making an effort to stop it, but YOU DON’T DO IT.
TO THE LIFEGUARD:
In case of an accident, tell her that she is responsible as the person in charge of the pool. Encouraging and tolerating those jumps does not help her at all.
TO BUSCO UN CHOLLO:
You don’t specify the type of room, which makes it impossible to make a complaint, so you put your own benefit before the comfort of the customer, and I DID NOT LIKE THAT AT ALL.
Being given a room for three, making the space smaller, and not being able to say anything, plus not having a fridge when other rooms have one.
There are two types of double room.
August and no fridge — really lets you enjoy the heat to the fullest.
It’s a just-about-acceptable three-star hotel for €138 per day Full Board.
A LA DIRECCION DEL HOTEL:
Evitar jugar con balones en la piscina, así como evitar saltar haciendo filigranas, es tan sencillo como poner interés en acabar con ello, NO LO HACEIS.
A L@ SOCORRISTA:
En el caso de accidente, decirla que la responsable es ella como responsable, de la piscina, jugar y jalerar esos saltos no la favorece, en nada.
A BUSCO UN CHOLLO:
No especificáis, el tipo de habitación lo que hace imposible una reclamación, por lo que anteponeis, vuestro beneficio a la comodidad del cliente, esto no me ha gustado NADA.
Que te entregen una habitación para tres, disminuyendo el habitáculo y no poder decir nada, que no tenga frigo cuando otras lo tienen.
Hay dos tipos de habitación doble
Agosto y sin un frigo, es disfrutar del calor en plenitud.
Es un *** justo por 138€ diarios P.C. es aceptable.

Hemos disfrutado de nuestro estancia la comida variado y muy deliciosa
One thing that could be improved: the bathroom tap didn’t shut off properly and water was also leaking from the mixer.
Algo que podría mejorar el grifo del cuarto de baño no cerraba bien también se escapa el agua por el bater.

La atención del personal, y el personal de mantenimiento, se rompió un accesorio del baño y en menos de una hora esta reemplazado.
It should be mentioned that the hotel is geared towards the Muslim religion; they don't serve alcoholic drinks or pork.
The hotel must have been nice in its day, but now it's very old and could really use a renovation.
The food wasn't bad, because it really wasn't, but there wasn't much variety. And none of it was European or Mediterranean food, it was all Halal food.
Se debería mencionar que el hotel esta orientado en la Religión Musulmana, no sirven bebidas alcohólicas, ni cerdo.
El hotel en su día tuvo que estar bien, ahora esta muy viejo, una reforma no le vendría nada mal.
La comida sin ser mala, porque mala no estaba, tenían poca variedad. Toda vez que no que era comida Europea ni mediterránea, era comida Halal.

Disappointing
El hotel se encontraba cerca de la playa y hay un parking gratuito cerca, a dos minutos andando.
At night there was a lot of noise at the hotel; a group of young people were shouting and the hotel staff did nothing.
As for the food, it was rather meagre — we ordered a picnic because we had an excursion and were given a simple sandwich, which was far too little.
Regarding cleanliness, the bathroom towels were not changed for the whole week. The hotel looks quite old. These aspects should be improved.
En el hotel a las noches se escuchaban muchos ruidos, había un grupo de jóvenes gritando a las noches y el personal del hotel no hizo nada.
En cuanto a las comidas, es un poco escaso, pedimos un picnic poraue teníamos una excursión y nos dieron un simple sándwich, super escaso.
En cuanto a limpieza, no cambiaron las toallas del baño en toda la semana. El hotel se ve bastante antiguo. A mejorar esos aspectos.

La ubicación estabien, muy cerca de la playa. La piscina está bien , aunque estaba llena de niños , colegio enteros ...
It’s all very old, and it’s true that for what it cost, the quality/price is passable. It’s also worth noting that the hotel is for Muslims, so there is no pork in the food, and you can’t have a beer...
Está todo muy viejo , si que es verdad que para lo que ha costado, calidad/precio está pasable , también a recalcar que el hotel es de musulmanes y ni hay comida de cerdo , ni te puedes tomar una cerveza ...

Por empezar es la primera vez que me encuentro un hotel en Cataluña y España que no sirven en ninguna parte del establecimiento bebidas alcohólicas......la manutención del hotel está bajo mínimos...en el comedor no hay plancha y agarrate a lo que hay..variación muy muy mínima...por la mañana le llaman cruasán a algo de goma...la picina sucia.las ama as de diversidad y muchas rotas...en fin me falta el acjevito ideal (aún no ha salido) para calificarlo....una noche y nunca más.....fatal...y eso que miro de adaptarme pero por ese precio...he estado en otros que le dan mil vueltas.....y por busco un chollo, claro......un hotel que tenía que ser muy bueno en sus inicios hoy por hoy ni una estrella (,el día que sepa como los clasifican por estrellas...)......
